Privacy Notice

This notice explains what information Newaygo County Recent Arrests receives, how it is used, and when another party may receive it. By continuing to use the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search Tools

A name, location, or other term entered into a search box is transmitted to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's privacy terms govern its handling of the query.

Messages Sent to Us

If you send an email or contact-form message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share the message beyond our organization unless disclosure is legally required.


Technical Information Collected Automatically

Ordinary web operations may record details associated with a page request, including:

  • Internet Protocol address;
  • browser name and version;
  • device category and operating system;
  • pages viewed and time spent on them;
  • the referring website, when supplied; and
  • the date and time of the request.

Cookies and Similar Storage

Cookies may help measure how visitors use the site. Browser controls can reject or remove cookies, although disabling them may change how some site or partner features work.


How Information Is Used

  • Operate the website and maintain reasonable performance.
  • Send a search request to the selected partner service.
  • Understand which Newaygo County record guides visitors find useful.
  • Diagnose errors, security concerns, and other technical problems.
  • Display advertising that may be selected according to interests.

Privacy on Linked Services

Links may lead to Newaygo County jail and sheriff pages, MI-VINE, courts, Michigan Department of Corrections, federal locators, other government portals, or third-party search services. After you follow a link, that destination's privacy policy and data practices apply.

Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites for interest-based advertising. That tracking occurs under the partner's controls rather than this site's direct operation.


Parties That May Receive Data

We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be handled by:

  • search partners that process a submitted query;
  • analytics providers that measure site use;
  • advertising networks that deliver or measure ads; and
  • law-enforcement agencies or other government bodies when disclosure is required by a valid legal order.

Reasonable Security Measures

We use standard safeguards appropriate to a public website. No internet transmission, connected service, or storage system is completely secure, however, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.


Visitors Younger Than 18

This website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Contacts page to request deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and our ability to verify a request, you may ask for a copy of personal information we hold, request correction of inaccurate information, seek deletion, or opt out of certain processing. Michigan public records obtained under the Michigan Freedom of Information Act, MCL 15.231 et seq., remain controlled by the government custodian and are not hosted by this site.


Changes to This Notice

We may revise this privacy notice as the site or its services change. An updated version becomes effective when posted here with a new effective date.
